Well, that 4 days off sure went quickly..... Good job I only have a 3 day week this week isn't it?! Got to use up that holiday somehow haven't I?! I did spend my time off wisely though with a nice amount of crafting and craft shopping! Also managed to combine 2 challenges.... the sketch from Stamp with Fun and also the theme of 'Ribbons & Bows' from Just Magnolia.

I have a bit of a confession to make. As much as I love my Magnolia stamps, I only actually own 2 of the older style ones which I bought ages ago! I know, shocking huh?! I have a tiny stack of precious images that friends have stamped for me and am rationing myself to them! I think I had better invest in some really, it seems rude not to doesn't it?!

Stunning card Stacey. Gorgeous papers and love the out of bounds technique you've used with this Tilda! I only had 2 Tilda's until recently too and like you was relying on the stash that fellow crafters had sent me! I can highly recommend ordering the Magnolia stamp club kits. I have already had the summer kit and have cards on my blog made using them and I am now waiting for my fall kit to drop through my door. Hopefully this week!! It works out at roughly £26-£29 for the kit with postage depending on the exchange rate and you get 12-15 stamps in total in them, 6-7 of these stamps being figures. An absolute bargain I think you'll agree!Hope you have a great day back at work. It's my first day at my new job today. Ooooooh nerve wracking!!Hugs, Vicky ~x~

I'm a 30-something blogger who lives in Southampton my lovely husband Alistair
I have been crafting since the start of 2008. I love making cards, but also enjoy whipping up a storm with my sewing machine or a pair of knitting needles!
I've had a little bit of a crafting break over the past couple of years, mainly due to my ridiculously demanding day-job. However, I miss crafting so much that I'm determined to make more time for my hobby!
